By now most of you have certainly heard of "SignalGate." However, Tropical Soulvangelical has his cynicisms specifically where it comes to both Chuck Schumer and the Social Security Scare. Now where Social Security is concerned, TSV refers to reports of the "proposal" and the layoffs, both of which he believes are problems that you can solve by -rejecting- the proposal and -rehiring- people who got laid off. For his end, TSV's made donations and signed at least one petition. Other than that, he's not referring to the scare media outside of those reports, but he has observed that the scare coverage had been effectively tossed aside when SignalGate started happening. He's wondering if that's their way of conceding that the scare coverage is simply scare coverage that's not reflected by the actual reports that TSV's aware of. Another sign of concession he saw in that one petition that for some reason quoted Martin O'Malley, the great Ed Snowden protege from 2016. If the scare is truly supposed to be believed, that petition site he thinks should never have referred to such a controversial figure, and he's messaged the site accordingly. TSV's also observed that SignalGate got started not by the editor in chief at the Atlantic (a publication for which TSV hasn't seen a Papua New Guinea equivalent of, since it's got to be about basic information on a newsradio), but by Chuck Schumer as per the BBC's reference to a U.S. Senate Minority Leader's demand for hearings on the matter -the Monday after- Schumer had to contend with protests outside his residence during that weekend demanding that he step down after his government funding decision. It looked just as Stalking Horse for TSV as -trump- does for Schumer in general. TSV contacted his Senators to say that whatever that funding situation was about, it certainly reflected Schumer's decision to defy the will of primary voters in JulyOf24 and pressure Biden out of that race. You might have guessed that part of the reason why TSV keeps bringing up 7/24 is because that's the immoral society taking his President away from him, whereas that same immoral society currently has -trump- and in 2028 will inevitably have Bernie, regardless of how TSV is going to vote then. But it's not merely about TSV being embittered because it took a defiance against Democracy at large on Schumer's part (and on the part of the Israel Haters in placing a Not Committed line on the ballots, and possibly also Dean Phillips and Marianne Williamson) to deny TSV his rightful President. Of course he's pretty sure that no-one even remembers who Biden even is/was, let alone was once their President, for while the shock and horror and embarrassment and satire of SignalGate is still going on.
